Join us for the MPNO March meeting next Wednesday, March 14 at St. Casimir, Rm 108 starting at 6:30pm! We’ll be covering our events for the year, talk about the grants we applied for, we’ll be accepting nominations for 2018-19 officers & more.

Also, we’re still looking for a few more volunteers to help with the Easter Egg hunt on Saturday, March 24 at 10:30am. Hope to see you there!

We also applied to the Love Your Block grant (pdf) program for Moores Park and the Lansing River Trail (LRT) specifically with the installation of an outdoor bulletin board and park map; permanent aluminum benches; two permanent waste bins; and pet waste stations. View the submitted application.

Come to the Moores Park Easter Egg hunt Saturday, March 24 from 10:30-11:30am! We have an egg hunt for the 0-4 year olds and one for 5-12 year olds. There will be plenty of candy and giveaways if you find the marked eggs. You can also meet and take a picture with the Easter Bunny!

Wayfinding Signs In-Ground Installation

Thanks to all the volunteers and REACH for making the creation of these signs happen! They are going to be seen around the neighborhood this year. We will need 3-4 volunteers in early May to help put posts in the ground and hang signs. If you can help please email president@mooresparkeighborhood.com

Combined Sewer Overflow (CSO) Project
